What would be the easiest way of delivering quarantined messages without affecting the Corpus db and autowhitelist file?

I'm using the honeypot with great success, but think I should keep the blocked messages for future queries.

May I ask what future queries?

The honeypot only gives you IP addresses of email that was delivered to a honeypot address, which you know only gets spam. The logs are better for this.

If you want to keep a backup of the mail received and quarantined, then I would suggest, not allowing spamfilter to delete quarantined messages and have some sort of stored procedure to backup and clear-out the quarantine database on a scheduled basis, instead. This means the messages are recoverable (with a bit of work) but also out of the way of the main quarantine database tables.

Rothnie,

SpamFilter will automatically update both the corpus and autowhitelist files when force-delivering quarantined emails. If you disable the Bayesian filter and backup the autowhitelist file, deliver the emails, then reactivate the Bayesina filter and restore the autowhitelist file that should do the trick.
